I hear lots of agents complain about mortgage brokers. Some are described as incompetent, others are disliked because of excessive fees. I have worked with some horrible mortgage brokers (some horrible direct lenders too). However, I have also worked with an absolutely, fabulous mortgage broker, Bridget McGhee!
I met Bridget McGhee of Allied Home Mortgage through active rain. We met for lunch and instantly we hit it off. I liked the way she did business and decided I would give her a try and send her a client. The client loved her! She wasn't able to qualify to purchase at the time but the client appreciated how Bridget took the time to ensure that she understood the mortgage process and also the fact that she was willing to work with her to get her ready to buy.
Since then, I have referred several people to Bridget. Each time, I hear nothing but glowing reports from my clients. Even one client who fired me :-( had the good sense to stick with Bridget who went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that the client was well represented. Bridget even continued my tradition of donating to charity following that transaction.
On Thursday, the original client that I had sent to Bridget over a year ago finally closed on her home. I was not able to attend the closing but my partner felt that Bridget was wonderful and that she helped ensure that the client completely understood what she was signing. Can you believe that Bridget attends her closings?
Bridget is very knowledgeable about mortgages. However, much of her charm is in her warm, personable manner. Clients are immediately comfortable with her and come to value and trust her opinion. Very quickly, Bridget feels like a friend!
If you are looking for a mortgage professional in Maryland I would highly recommend that you give Bridget McGhee a call.

Stacey - That's fantastic that you found a lender that you work well with. Half of the battle in dealing with lenders, is striking a good relationship. I hope she brings you nothing but good. I'm still committed to my lender, so I can't test her out :)
Margaret - Absolutely, Bridget is AKA "Mortgage Mama". Let me know how you like working with her
Stan - I agree that a good relationship is half the battle.
Stacey - Kudos to you for writing such a wonderful post regarding Bridget McGhee of Allied Home Mortgage
I have chatted with Bridget several times on AR over the years. From my conversations with her I expected nothing less than what you posted about.
Congrats Bridgett... you are one of the good ones
Stacey, I think it is great that you called out someone that is doing an outstanding job. All too often we use our time to complain. I think you did a great thing here, the fact that you found a "go to" lender is all that much better.
Dr. Stacey, Thank you for your gift of Bridget! Margaret Rome Plus Mortgage Mama = ActiveRain Success We missed you on Sunday!
